Plants of the Pribilof Islands. 137 



LIST OF PLANTS COLLECTED ON THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS 

 IN JULY AND AUGUST, 1891.* 



Anemone richardsoni Hooker. 



Flowering specimens collected on St. Paul August 7. Not 

 common. 



Ranunculus flammula reptans Meyer. 



Common about the edges of fresh-water ponds on St. George. 

 Collected in flower August 10. 



Ranunculus eschscholtzii Schlecht. 



Found in flower among rocks near Bogoslof hill, St. Paul, 

 August 7. 



Ranunculus hyperboreus Rottb. 



Found in flower on both St. Paul and St. George. 



Aconitum delphinifolium Reich. 



Abundant on both islands ; in full bloom during the latter part 

 of July and early August. Those growing in the moss-bogs are 

 smaller and more delicate than those on higher and drier 

 ground. 



Papaver nudicaule Linn. 



Abundant on both islands; sometimes scattered here and 

 there in the grass among other equally conspicuous flowers, but 

 often growing in large beds on the moss and heather bogs, cover- 

 ing acres with handsome yellow flowers, which are of large size ; 

 at height of blooming the last week of July ; petals falling early 

 in August. 



Cardamine hirsuta Linn. 

 Abundant on both islands. 



* Respecting the localities assigned, it should be borne in mind that 

 most of the collecting was done on St. Paul Island ; hence a large number 

 of the species here attributed to St. Paul alone doubtless occur in equal 

 abundance on St. George.
